Neurophysiology, Neurotransmitters, and How they connect to Psychiatric Disorders

This PMHN PODCAST EPISODE explains key neurophysiology concepts, focusing on neurons, glia, and neurotransmitters like dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin, glutamate, GABA, and acetylcholine. It outlines neurotransmitter roles in impulse transmission, their synthesis, release, inactivation, and how imbalances contribute to psychiatric conditions such as depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and substance abuse. We are diving into neurophysiology, neurotransmitters, and how they connect to psychiatric disorders.

We unpacked how neurons and neurotransmitters shape mental health and psychiatric care. From dopamine to serotonin, these chemical messengers are at the heart of psychiatric nursing practice.
